Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: “I am afraid we are not rid of God because we still have faith in grammar.” For better or worse, those days are now gone.

The most imperative unarticulated presupposition of Western culture has been the free and unified subject, sustained by the theological illusion as the guarantor of its intrinsic value, as articulated by Descartes. It was by making use of the grammatical postulate of the indivisible Cogito as the metaphysical underpinning of civilization that the governing rationality of our judicial, financial and political order could emerge. However, the implicit representational logic steadfastly administrating the societal machines has mostly been left unthought and our collective unconscious has therefore managed to effectively reduce differences in a sacrificial process of deathly repetitions, which has organized and nailed down each human body of the socious as a subject of one.

The accelerating level of productiveness has been astonishing all throughout this grammatical paradigm, despite the wars and cults of death it predictibly produced, primarily to the satisfaction of the elect — the main beneficiaries of the current set of folds. Everything has seemed possible and although postmodern theories has challenged the state of affairs, the Cogito has prevailed. Until now.
